CNET CWR-854 Router Port Forwarding Screenshots

Now that you are logged in to your CNET CWR-854 router you should see the following:

Click the Advanced Setup link near the left of the page.

Click the Filters link near the top of the page.

This page lets you block traffic into and out of your router. We need to make sure that the ports you are forwarding are not shown on this page.
Remember, I am showing you how to use the page so you can remove the ports you are forwarding from it. Your port forwarding configuration will not work if
the ports you are forwarding are on this page. Make sure that a port range here does not contain the ports you are forwarding. I'm going to go over the
boxes on this page. The Filtering Layer drop down box will generally be set to Port Filtering to filter ports. The Proto Num box will be
grayed out, so we will not do anything with it. The Direction drop down allows you to select traffic coming into or going out of your network. The
Private Port Range box will let you enter the ports to block. The lowest port number in the range should go into the box on the left. The highest
port number in the range should go into the box on the right. If you only plan on blocking one port enter that port number into both of these boxes. Use
the Protocol drop down box to select the port protocol of the blocked ports.

Click the Virtual Servers link near the top of the page.
